Please be aware that DV LEAP assists with legal appeals of unjust rulings in domestic violence and child abuse cases. We do not provide legal representation for individuals before there is a judgment. Residents of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia may be eligible for certain limited additional assistance.

Please fill out the form below so we can assess your eligibility. If you are seeking help in an appeal, we will also need to review the written court transcripts to determine if your case meets the necessary criteria.
